    Uncle Hamish and the Hooligans

    I just wanted to say what a great band is Uncle Hamish and the Hooligans, a.k.a. That Celtic Band. I decided to run up to Dayton last night to see them at the Dublin Pub and had a great time. The music was awesome and it was a pleasure to meet Shawn and a couple of the other players. I'm still in awe of drummer Jim Black's four-against-five beat rhythm in one of the numbers - he says it's common , but don't recall ever hearing it and I can't figure out how to make my hands do that. What was that tune, anyway?

    Thanks for a good show, guys. Hope to see you up at the Dayton Celtic Festival some time.

    Regards,
    Rex.

    They are tops in my book, too Rex. Did they do the Warning, the Duntrune Ghost song?

    The Justice Evil Brings is such a good recording on so many levels.

    Rex
    Glad you liked them, after seeing them at Loch Norman earlier this year they are one of my favs. The Justice Evil Brings really is worth a listen.
